Question

Assume that we want to find the probability that when five consumers are randomly​ selected, exactly two of them are comfortable with delivery by drones. Also assume that 38​% of consumers are comfortable with the drones​ (based on a​ survey). Identify the values of​ n, x,​ p, and q. The value of n is __. ​(Type an integer or a decimal. Do not​ round.) The value of x is __. ​(Type an integer or a decimal. Do not​ round.) The value of p is __. ​(Type an integer or a decimal. Do not​ round.) The value of q is ___ . ​(Type an integer or a decimal. Do not​ round.)

Answer 1

From the given data, the value of N is equal to 5, The value of X is equal to 2. Since 38% of the consumers are comfortable with drone, this makes the value of P equal to 0.38. And now using the equation to find Q = 1 - P, where P is 0.38, we now get 1 - 0.38, therefore Q = 0.62. To summarize, N =5; X = 2; P = 0.38; Q = 0.62
